I read and appreciate EVERY comment you make folks - I don’t have time to reply to them all, but I really want you to know that I genuinely read them all, so thanks for taking the time to write them. Especially for this video

[@mlt6322]

Grame, about the water issue. I've suggested it before, get a couple of lengths of 4inch (10cm) PVC pipe and make water pipes on top of the crush and have an electric fuel pump for a car hooked to them with a hose and shop air gun as a sprayer for some of those deep cracked hooves. Clean what's needed just like using a waterpic tooth cleaner. I used to have an antifreeze jug with a fuel pump inside it and an old spray gun on top and a 12v emergency light battery taped to the side of the jug, it would knock a soda can over from 50 ft away. 3 full sections of PVC pipe on top would probably hold about 50 gallons of water, more than enough for a days trimming.

[@kimrafferty7170]

Hi Graeme, thank you for such a personal video, you had your hands full today but thank you for showing cows who live outside can and do get problems, I personally thought that cows only got dermatitis because of walking in their waste but today I learnt that is not true and no matter what environment they live in problems arise and the cows who are under your care are able to get treated in the very best way possible. I have heard your story of how you lost the farm, going through that at such a young age is never easy but I am a true believer that everything happens for a reason, sometimes it doesn't make sense that anything good can come through such grief and pain but look at you now, your path took you through some awful times but it brought you to where you are today, I am certain your Dad would be so so proud of what you have achieved and the knowledge that you are able to teach so many, so cows around the world are given better treatment and quicker healing. I am not a farmer, I am a housebound grandma who is severely disabled due to spinal damage caused when I was 8 years old when a boy in my class pulled the chair away as I went to sit down - twice - life's lessons are there and it is up to us how we deal with them, be proud of what your Dad taught you and then your stepdad teaching you your trade. Love to you and your family and again thank you for such a personal video xxxx

I lost my father when I was 18. Since then I’ve had the big milestones like the first year without him, then the big birthdays like 21 and then half my life with him and half without. Last year I hit 50, the age he was when he died. I often wonder what he’d think of the man I’ve become. I still miss him to this day and am proud to have been his son. Life never gets easier when you’ve lost a parent but I’ve learnt that I am stronger for the pain and suffering. I’m sure your father would be super proud of the man his son has grown into. The care you show the animals you work on, the love of the work and the skills that you display when you expertly slice off millimetres of hoof!

[@karenokeson2705]

I can understand what you have experienced over the years. My father died a little over 20 years ago. I was older than you, in my early 30's but, still hard. This year I reached the age my father was when he died. It is an unusual feeling. Take care. Enjoy the ride. Smell the roses.

Graeme my dad died when I was 19, I'd taken care of him as a young girl. Was with him continually for the last six months of his life. Incredibly hard and wonderful I learned more about my Irish heritage. I became a nurse, injured my back raised a family who know my da's story,now we (hubby of 38 yr.) meet US and NATO troops as the return home or deploy 24/7 365. Everything I've done my life I've taken him with me. Everyday he's with me. The day I got married I decided to have a father daughter dance with my brother except I felt like I was dancing with my Da. Until we got the pictures back the photographer was very upset that special picture was something he couldn't explain he got my Da dancing with me that day.

[@karenokeson2705]

I love what you gentlemen do. Graeme, I fully understand what you're feeling about being on the farm you grew up on. When I was 15, my parents split up and my mom, brother and myself moved to town. We had an auction to sell the cows and equipment, the farm was sold. Fast forward about 15 years, my brother and his wife are looking to buy a house. The house and surrounding buildings plus 40 acres of land are for sale. They bought the place. Hadn't been a working farm for years, all the metal stanchions and pipelines in the barn had been stripped out years before. They don't have a herd of cows but, they have a small clowder of outdoor cats they love and take care of. It always feels like home. It's been really great watching them build their lives and family for the last 20-odd years. Lots of new memories for all of us. I apologize for being long winded. I enjoy watching you, Craigie boy and Kevin take such good care of the cows. It also brings fond memories of time spent with my cows when I was young. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. 💗💜💙🐄🐂

[@Rottenrottie14]

Thanks for the captions😂Thank you for these wholesome videos❤

[@cubbie1984]

This video hit close to home for me. I come from a family of dairy farmers, and growing up spent significant time helping on them. They’re honestly some of my most precious memories. Recently, the last dairy farm in the family-the very one I used to help on-had to be auctioned off because my cousin’s wife filed for divorce and was awarded half the farms value. All the cows and equipment are now gone, and last I heard the farmhouse, barn and all the other outbuildings will be taken down so it can all be converted over to crop fields. My heart still aches over it as it was just a few months back that it all happened. It shouldn’t bother me so as I’m now 60 years old and would never be able to do what I did in my younger years. I don’t even live in the area, but it still brings heartache. I can’t imagine what you felt being back at your family farm. But I’m certain your father would be proud of the life you’ve built, and I hope you find comfort in that thought. Blessings to you, and thank you for sharing your cows with me; it means more than you’ll ever know!

[@MrsBrit1]

Hearing you talk about growing up here and losing your father and, with him, the prospect of running this farm yourself, genuinely made me tear up. I didn't grow up on a cattle farm, but I did grow up surrounded by small cattle farms. There were two across from our home and I miss the sights and smell and sounds, the cows lowing on a brisk morning while we waited at the school bus stop, the occasional breakout of a freedom seeker, the horses grazing alongside the Herefords and Holsteins. Something like that really gets into your skin and becomes a part of you, even when you're not the one working the fields and tending the animals. Just existing alongside it is beautiful. I think that's why I'm so drawn to your videos. 💗

[@nobudzful6552]

You brought tears to my eyes when remembering MY time on the ranch in Colorado, USA. I thought @19, I would live and die being a farmer's wife. Doing all there was at an Angus beef ranch of 3K acres. Alas, that ended with the sale of the 3rd generation in the later 1990's. I think back how hard we ALL worked and LOVED, and that my children missed that life. Be grateful, young man, for YOUR family can and WILL remember (thru you) what it meant to really live the life of an ancient culture of Scotland.

Love you guys and your banter, emotional episode for you, but your care for the animals shines through 🎉❤

[@dagnolia6004]

i wonder how many adults have a sentimental place in their hearts for their childhood? the childhood home is a place we house these memories. the poignancy you relate to us is poetry.

[@sallyhook798]

I do. I find it painful to think about it now. I had such a happy childhood on our family farm.

[@Dwaggienite]

Yes, but Graeme, you're forgetting the other meaning of chuff. A 'Chuff' is a sound that a tiger and other big cats make when they're happy. 'Utterly chuffed' comes from that :)

[@maggiedean3301]

Thanks for that info, I was wandering because I know it’s not from a bird. Thanks.

[@sandyhayden-bristow1382]

As a senior, I completely understand those moments of looking back and wondering 'what if'. It is a very natural reaction as we age and the mind goes over our history (especially in quiet, contemplative moments). I truly believe your Dad would be proud of all you have accomplished in your life, the care you take with your family and the legacy of taking care of these gentle giants.

[@SuperMontagner]

It must be hard to return to your old farm. You are a wonderful soul

[@Stayathomechickenmom2021]

I can honestly say that this is the only KZbin channel I actually learn from. I love everything you do on this channel. I found your channel about a month ago while recovering from back surgery. I can't speak for your dad, but I really hope you are proud of yourself. Thank you for making your amazing videos that are all about the cows 🐄

[@steverobbins4274]

Your friend was somewhat right about the tsunamis. There was a prehistoric tsunami that devastated the east and north coast of Scotland and the east coast of England. It was caused by an undersea land slip off the coast of Norway. Not forgetting the one that submerged Doggerland.

[@foxglovepearls]

You are your father’s legacy…he is definitely proud of you. I’m sorry you lost your dad at such a young age, but you preserved. You honor your dad every day ♥️🙏🏻♥️

[@LeeAnnVieira]

You are so awesome all the love and caring you give your herd family. I am totally addicted to your channel and Craig’s boy too🥰🥰🥰🥰🫶😍❤️

[@rocky-fuller]

You all deserve love. Thank you for providing relief for these cows and sharing your kindness to the world

[@persiangulf7706]

God bless your Dad that had passed a way

[@LauraE.9897]

Graeme, I lost my Dad this past year so I too find myself looking back thinking of my childhood & all the what ifs. The feeling sometimes overwhelms me thinking that safety net that a Dad provides is gone now for me. I keep reminding myself that my Dad left me with little bits of him that are deep within me. Every lesson he taught me, every story he told are all a part of me now so he is still with me after all, just as your Dad is part of you. I find myself naturally saying & teaching some of the same things to my kids so he lives on in them also. Im certain your Dad is quite "chuffed" as you say with all that you've accomplished, & someday I believe you will be together again & talk about the amazing things you've accomplished in your life. I can safely say your Dad as well as the rest of your family is so proud of you. As a subscriber from almost the beginning, I'm proud of you too & all of your accomplishments Graeme & the person you still are with a compassionate heart. 💚 🐄 🧡 🐂 💚

The Heart @10:29 fits perfectly with the memory being shared. ❤❤

[@RebekkaRN1962]

Wow! Didn't notice the heart shape when I originally watched the video. Thanks for pointing it out & now that I re-watch for it plus ➕ the subject matter being discussed.....I'm sure that it's a msg or sign from his Dad saying I love you & am so proud of you son!

[@scaredsilly1982]

@RebekkaRN1962 You know that's Right 🥰 Definitely a Message from Heaven 😇 Sent with Love, from Above 💘

[@maudeestrella8196]

Your father IS proud of you. Your work ethic, your personality and your lovely family have made you a wonderful person 🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦

[@elizabethruggiero9950]

Graeme, I, too, lost my father at a young age and often ponder, now that I’m 60, is if he would be proud of the person I’ve become. It has been bittersweet for those like us. But u can assure you, your father would be very proud indeed. You have a beautiful family, love your work, and open your life for us all to see. Many, many thanks.💝

[@EliseBarry-es5mk]

Hallelujah Glorious to God Almighty 🔥🔥🔥

[@HomicidalTh0r]

Farm Folk value skill, craftmanship, work ethic, a good soul, and practicality. All of which you've found in what you do. I think he would have been extremely proud that you've grown beyond his wildest dreams.

Who else thinks that this is satisfying??????

[@halibible8333]

I lost my dad just after my eleventh birthday and just a few days ago was the 49th year since he passed. What you said in this clip really touched me and I incompletely understood.

[@michelleagnew8780]

It’s wonderful to hear you talk about your childhood home. It’s a beautiful place and I’m glad for the drone tour. I look forward to seeing more farms and more cattle cared for.

[@nikkilandon6360]

I'm 56 and both of my parents are gone as of 2020. I had the best childhood looking back on it. Not perfect to any standards. What I've learned is to be humble and thankful. I think you and I are like that already. Importantly passing it to our children and new spouse. Much love to you and yours. I appreciate you sharing your life with us. From Iowa muwah.

[@goldenlunafish]

Friend, I echo the warm sentiments of previous commenters. It’s your heart, care, kindness, and sincerity that brings me to your videos. You and earnest ytbrs like you have helped me find the small ways I can make our world a little better, in my own way. I have also bid loved ones farewell too soon. but here we mourners are - still breathing, hearts still pumping. Let us do our best while we can. Big love to you and yours, from Vermont, U.S.A ❤

[@EdieDawnJay]

Hearing you ponder on what your life would have been like had your father lived longer hits home...I lost my father too, and it's a rare day when I don't wonder where I'd be if I still had him around for advice, or to teach me more about carpentry (he was a carpenter my whole life, and I still have bookshelves that he built that I refuse to ever let go of). I'd also like to let you know that your videos have gotten me through some terribly dark and troublesome times in my life, so I want to thank you. Every time I hear the songs you put into your videos it feels like a beautiful catharsis, a weight being lifted from my shoulders...you're a good man, Graeme, and I appreciate that you share your goodness with all of us

[@BastelRika]

You know, I have asked myself why I watch YOUR hoof trimming videos and not the other ones. When I describe your videos to others, I use one simple word: the are WHOLESOME. Your dedication, your love for these animals, your explanations that are interesting and never condescending - your videos are a joy to watch and relax me after an exhausting day at work. And now I know what a white line defect is, which will be very beneficial to my career - just kidding. Thank you for being a spot of light in the online world.

[@jamesonsperling8551]

I think turning a sort of blue collar everyday trimming job into something that relaxes people and gives them a way to escape the stresses of life for 10 minutes a day is truly incredible. Just know you’ve definitely made him proud

[@KC-603]

You wear your heart on your sleave. I could tell how emotional you were being around your old homestead. I hope visiting gives you peace! 🫂 from New Hampshire USA 👏🏻

[@general330]

Seems everyone else in the comments has already said it, but its mainly the cast of characters that i watch your videos for. You're all great human beings, who truly love what they do, and are a level of happy and joy that i let life suck out of me a decades ago. Your videos literally brighten my day, and i smile throughout every video i watch. For that reason alone, im sure your dad would be happy and proud of the man you've become, and the success youve earned. I truly dont know why i enjoy watching you trim cows feet, but it truly brings me a sense of peace and happiness. Not to leave out, your accent helps a little too. :)

[@salchipapa5843]

I've never been to Scotland or met Graeme, but this video and his commentary for some reason made me feel nostalgic all the same. What a beautiful video.

[@lindam9018]

Graeme, your father would be so proud of you, your work, your family, and how you treat people.😊

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

My mother mourned for the farm she grew up in in Eire for the rest of her life and for her grandparents who brought her up there. These are the childhood homes that not all of us get to have, but these are also the circumstances that make these memories the strongest, hardest and most poignant when death and loss completely change the expected path of your life. You have done magnificent work with cows again in the end and I only wish that my mother had got to see your channel too, she'd have loved it. Thank you for what you do ❤

[@RyutanL]

I lost my father around that age too. I know how it feels to look back and honor a life you only got to know so briefly. He would be proud to see you making something great of your name.

[@melaniej.5265]

You've come a long way & I'm sure your Dad would be proud of you, but more importantly, YOU need to be proud of you. Must be weird/neat when you return to this property & see what's changed, including in yourself. Keep up the great work for these cows & I can't wait to read your book ❤🐮

[@DrRainbowBecca]

Your father would be so proud. I subscribed to you years ago because i could hear the genuine love and passion you have. I became fascinated with cows because of you. You're an incredible teacher and a beautiful person. ❤

[@therachellllcat4444]

One thing that I think translates between what life you could've had and where you're at now is your compassion and caring for these animals. I think that's a major draw, at least for me, with the videos. I think your perspective and spot in this world is needed, which is why your videos keep people. I'm not sure what your dad's values were, but you seem to hold a lot of love, compassion, and diligence. Those are values that resonate with us, and that would make many parents proud. I'm sure he would be very proud of you. 💕

[@x3xmikey333]

Everyone has already said what I could have, but I agree with all their sentiments and just wanna add all the more love in the world I can. You're an amazing person, Papá, and I'm glad to "know" you. 🖤

[@katieadams7708]

I watch with my 4 yr old grandson, and he loves watching you “make the cows feel better” . He also likes seeing your kiddos from time to time. He wants to “Go to Scottie land and see the cow fixer guy.”
